A trackhoe, also known as a "track excavator" or "crawler excavator," refers to a type of earth-moving machinery. The term "track" refers to the crawler-type chassis of the excavator, while "hoe" refers to its shovel or bucket. This machine is primarily used for digging materials above or below the level of the machine and loading them onto transport vehicles or unloading them at a disposal site. The materials excavated are primarily soil, coal, mud, sand, and rock.
